Old School Vinyasa Yoga

A breath-centered approach to Vinyasa Yoga suitable for all levels.

Old School Vinyasa Yoga is based on the methods of the legendary T Krishnamacharya, the "Grandfather of Modern Yoga" and teacher of BKS Iyengar, Indra Devi and Pattabhi Jois.

These short practice videos are suitable for everyone, regardless of age, experience, flexibility or cultural background. If you can breathe, you can do this Yoga!

Vinyasa Yoga is the "Art of Moving and Breathing"—linking movement to long, slow breathing. In this way, your yoga practice becomes a "Moving Meditation" and is completely personal, safe, effective and most importantly, enjoyable!

This therapeutic approach to Vinyasa Yoga has been shown to effectively reduce mental and emotional stress, aid in pain management, increase stability in the joints, strengthen the core and low back, alleviate asthma and respiratory disorders and more. Krishnamacharya's son TKV Desikachar has employed these methods in a clinical setting since 1976, helping thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds with a wide variety of physical and mental issues.
